My band teacher had a rule, where whenever you play a percussion instrumen, and you aren't a percussionist, then you either have to do 25 pushups or you get written up. That just led to everybody playing their instruments at the start of class, which led to about 96 decibals for about 5 minutes a day and permanent hearing damage. Somebody also decided to run his hand across the wind chimes one time and got the option of either 720 pushups, or he could get written up. He decided to get written up.

I remember middle school band. In 6th grade, they kept us separated by woodwinds and brass and taught us how to play our instruments first. Then, as we got into actual sheet music, they finally put us together in full band and we got to play all together for the first time. I still remember how glorious (and horrible) it was. As soon as we stopped, everybody started talking to each other about how amazing it felt to be part of that. I miss those days. I wanna be back in high school band so bad man I peaked in high school and my life since has been a slow downfall. It's only been a year since I graduated wtf 😭 I wanna go back to the first time we went to a marching band competition and took home the grand prize.

Today I had the interesting experience of playing with the percussionist that was playing with our orchestra for Assessments. (I don’t play percussion, I’m a first violin but I broke my arm yesterday and couldn’t bow so our director just decided I’d figure out how to play tambourine in 45 mins so that I could play the concert.) And here are just a couple things he said: “Wait… WHY DO YOU GUYS HAVE SO MANY NOTES??” “So, are violas just violins that want to be special?” “FOR THE LAST TIME… STOP TOUCHING THE SNARE DRUM.” “So, do like all orchestra directors hate percussionists or just this one?” “I’m confused, you only have 4 strings, how do you make so many different noises?” “Why are the violins such show offs?” “Dude, what’s that big one. Is it on steroids?” (Talking about a double bass 😭) And many more…

(they won't bring it tomorrow) There's always a xylophone asking for new sticks There's always that one kid who suddenly needs to go to the bathroom during warm ups (every day) There's always that one kid who shows up once every three months (without their instrument)... yet they're always at school...where do they go...? "Wait, where are we?" There's always a Bari sax who only plays two notes in every song... Legend has it they're still counting rests...

[@Nic0_ghost_king]

Very real. I cannot stand middle school band. I am a second year player and have learned Clarinet in band but also play flute, trumpet, and drums privately and am losing my mind with how people treat their instruments. Flutes placed on keys, clarinet bells banged on stands and the floor, trumpets placed on the wrong side. We can’t leave our instruments in the band room before school anymore because of mistreatment of instruments that aren’t ours, such as percussion stuff,the piano, and the several thousand dollar harmony director. Students also bring in their non band friends, which is a huge issue because they don’t know how to handle the instruments. This is awful for orchestra because we share a classroom with them and they can’t put their instruments in the classroom before school. I feel sorry for the cellos, basses, other large orchestra, the bass clarinets, tubas, all saxophones(bar our baritone who was a huge part of the issue), and all brass aside from that one trumpeter who has a small and light case.

Thank you so much for saying this. My trumpets are exactly the stereotypes you should take them for. I've once had a trumpet walk up to me, and with NO context whatsoever, say "I'm better than you." He barely even knew me or my percussion experience. He was just an ego trumpet.

[@JMKentuckyEASFilms]

What my middle school band was like. Woodwinds - A large majority of students in band are in Woodwinds class. -They play so good but so behind the brass class. (I was in brass class playing the euphonium) They are still in the beginning stages of their band books while brass class has already reached to the Christmas musics section in just 2 months. Low Brass: Trumpets - They are okay, but the way they play was so clogged up sounding so unclear. Trombones - They are facing down so they won’t hit anyone or anything cause their slides was so long and really chatty. Tubas - I don’t know because they weren’t in my brass class. Only the 7th and 8th grade brass classes. (This whole information was from my first ever experience in band class from 6th Grade. I was originally signed up for 5th Grade band but my mom didn’t knew she signed me up 2 days after the deadline.) Baritones/Euphonium - I was the only Baritone/Euphonium player in my brass class.. French Horn - The other only person the played the French Horn on my brass class but I didn’t knew him so much because a lot of the days, he was out sick. Percussion - Didn’t know because of the same reason for the Tubas. Xylophone - Didn’t know because it was on 2nd period class for the Woodwinds. And that is it. The other ones I didn’t mention was in 7th and 8th Grade band classes.
